lack·a·dai·si·cal

By Sarah Aterrado - May 30, 2013


I've never been this idle since I got myself into the world of WAHMs (Work at Home Mom). You know, given the time I save from commuting to and fro, I should have the liberty for a hobby or something.

Okay, I do have a hobby but it's not as strenuous as before. As a matter of fact, it doesn't even require to move a muscle. lol

When was the last time I actually worked up a sweat? Or tried something new? I used to be soooo active. I was once a football player, a dancer, a mountaineer. But now? Now, I am exhausted. Exhausted for doing nothing. I fear that my thirst for thrill and vigor has slowly gone away. :(

Right now, I TERRIBLY MISS (yes, in bold uppercase letters):

Cuts, bruises, and injuries. Even I can't believe I miss being injured;

Getting kicked in the shin, then drop and roll on the floor in pain. lol;

Adrenaline rush;

High altitude, steep cliffs, mini-heart attacks and that feeling of falling down;

Cursing the sun for being too hot but loving it at the same time;

Burning calories while trying not to burn too much because I don't want to lose weight. lol;

Resisting Coke because I have always believed it affects my cardio endurance (it didn't matter if it doesn't);

Catching my breath;

Our coach's punishment (duck walk or knee-to-chest, anyone?), jog-sprint intervals, or the dreaded Cooper test;

Late night dance practices. Plus balut with spicy suka afterwards;

Pressure;

Our choreographer's/captain's scolding and nagging, and the never ending routine polishing;

Muscular fatigue. Sa bisaya pa, PAMAOL;

Winning. And even losing.

I miss the feeling of being so alive. I seriously need a physically exhausting hobby right now and get out of the doldrums. I want to bring back my old life—a not-so-sedentary lifestyle. I need something that can awaken the sleeping dragon in me and reignite the flames of my passion.

I want to breathe fire again.

  3. Aww. I feel you! I so miss the times that I get exhausted by doing physical activities. I am n0t a WAHM (not a m0m yet). In fact, I work in an office setting but I feel like a couch potato. haha.

  5. Hahahaha....relate much. I am also just like you. A dancer and a runner, but when I become a mom I stop doing that. Well occasionally I am into dancing just in our house and running if I have the chance to join FUN RUN. That's it after that my usual routine turn into BORING LIFE. Hahahaha...but I tried to make my LIFE worth living so I decided to blog while managing my net cafe.
